Official Match Day Thread: Roosters v Souths

[Waylander]

FMD I’m loving this. The atmosphere at the ground is amazing. Jazz gets a massive cheer with every touch or tackle.

[Jacks Fur Coat]

Most enjoyable half of footy from us I've seen in a long time. Intense, focussed, error free. And blissfully no pot plant penalties.

We are playing with terrific shape and speed with physicality and its worn Souths out. Conversely they have given some cheap errors in return.

Teddy has been monumental. Add JWH and Vic owning that ruck its been pretty to watch.

And well done Sam, called you out and you have delivered. 40 to go but looking very good.

The boys will bring it home for the Big Dog.

[Qld Chook]

Great first half!

Teddy, Rads, JWH, Cheese & Sammy the standouts.

Bunnies have started super fast in 2nd half in their first two games so we need to match them for the first 10-15 then run home with it. Cmon boys!!

[Rooster_6]

Very composed & clinical performance from us so far. Only got the 1 penalty out of Klein and it took 36 minutes but we’ve done well to still control the field position and tempo of the game.

Radley, Brandon Smith & Teddy all standouts in that first half.

WELL, fark moi , that was an absolute cluster**** by Russell’s rat bags …werent it ?

[Bates]

Great start from the boys.

I hope Sandon is ok!

Up the Chooks.

Outstanding first half Teddy/Radley best two on the field can see how much we have missed Watson's speed through the middle he has been dangerous.

I thought we looked better with Smith on the park in terms of go-forward, plus a bit better in defence.

[roosterchook]

Best attacking/defensive half I’ve seen in a long time. Just want to win this without injuries or suspensions. Young a great buy.

[Steggles]

im loving sammy leading this team round calling the shots.

teddy is pulling strings, his passing game is back.

dom young's pace is insane

Hate to say it, but it only happens when Keary isn’t playing. We look so much better when Sammy steers the team. His confidence comes back as does his creativity. Playing well.

Expect the vermin to come out and grub it up after HT and try to put us off our game got to stay focussed and not get drawn into the niggly crap.

[fletch]

I thought we looked better with Smith on the park in terms of go-forward, plus a bit better in defence.

Watson is engaging the markers working out of dummy half and is opening up space/time for others to attack the vermin defensive line.

Crack out the 1/2 time Prosecco and Dannemann cigars. A terrific effort for JWH's 300th!

[MCMLXVI]

Buster Keaton try and I love it.

[The Brain]

[Qld Chook]
